Flow and radiation heat transfer of a nanofluid over a stretching sheet with velocity slip and temperature jump in porous medium
2013
Abstract In this paper, we present an investigation for the flow and radiation heat transfer of a nanofluid over a stretching sheet with velocity slip and temperature jump in porous medium. The Brownian motion and thermophoresis are taken into account according to Rosseland’s approximation. The governing coupled partial differential equations are non-dimensionalized and solved both numerically and analytically by local similarity method. The effects of involved parameters (velocity slip, temperature jump, thermal radiation, Prandtl number, Lewis number, Brownian motion, thermophoresis) on velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are presented graphically and analyzed. Moreover, the numerical results are compared with the analytical solutions obtained by Homotopy analysis method with very good agreement to validate the present results.
